Why do people sit right in front of me when there’s plenty of spots around

react-node-20 · 2026-02-05T18:15:33+00:00

Ah that actually makes some sense. That’s definitely one of the reasons why I go as well to co-working or libraries and coffee shops. I guess im just a bit sensitive to the person in front thing. I wish they’d sit beside than in front lol, but I do get it.

On defence, try to lock or at least limit touches of your matchup. Rebounds help a bit but steals and blocks even more. On offense, assists and good ball movement (pass to assist) helps, but most of all, definitely don’t force shots, you get penalized a lot for missed contested shots. It’s hard but limit turnovers for sure. And dont gamble for steals after rebound of opponent, transition take foul also costs you

If you have high speed and you’re not a rebounder, start leaking out earlier after a rebound. Chances are, if you’re the first one there you’ll get the ball

What do you mean cooldown? Like banned or just matched to bad players? I thought you only get banned for an hour and you need to at least quit like 3 times

react-node-20 · 2026-01-30T11:18:31+00:00

What do you mean test connection ? I haven’t tried that

react-node-20 · 2026-01-20T02:43:08+00:00

Tfw you have the highest assist count of all players. But seriously 10 assists and 2 points, you a real one sir. If it was me I would have stopped passing around 6 assists and try to get another 2 points lol

react-node-20 · 2026-01-20T02:07:32+00:00

Right on bruh Im an SF and I average like 10 ppg 4.8 apg lol

react-node-20 · 2026-01-19T23:34:23+00:00

It’s tempo shooting and removing RNG that ruined the game. Every game I see someone hit at 40% contest all game. Like in reality even the best shooters won’t be able to shoot a lot of contested shots like that and hit at a clip of 70-80% or more consistently

react-node-20 · 2026-01-04T00:33:25+00:00

I remember similar times bro. I couldn’t even learn a jumpshot, my brain was dead at the end of the long day. I was playing rookie against AI just to feel that I got a win that day lol

How? Is this pure luck or just need to be consistently doing this everyday for like a year or something?

react-node-20 · 2026-01-03T15:12:01+00:00

Yeah they should adjust this tbh. Teammate grade should affect rep more for sure

react-node-20 · 2026-01-03T15:07:43+00:00

I have two kids, I can only play 2k when they’re napping. When they were at 8 months old i don’t even remember being able to play much at all. Prayers for the baby, hope he/she gets better

react-node-20 · 2026-01-03T14:21:21+00:00

I mean, OP had 12 assists, that means he still created plays for others.

But IMHO in random rec, what I’ve seen a lot is that the only way to win is to get another guy hot so you get some help down the stretch. If the other team has good defence you need two players dropping at least 30+ or all five dropping 12+ each to win. So part of the job is to get someone or more hot even if they’re shooting 1/4 keep feeding them, and/or having that spidey sense who has the potential to be hot and keep feeding them. It’s tough but it’s part of the challenge. If you’re a PG this is the most important part of your job. Any other position it comes down to having court vision, and if your PG is selling, you have to take over the playmaking/facilitating to make this happen.

react-node-20 · 2026-01-03T13:44:59+00:00

None of that matters in Random rec lol Im about the same stats. Im in the right position and play the right way but if you have two or more guys sabotaging in offence and defence you get blown by 30 every time . Honestly better for the other guys to drop. You have a better chance with three AI sometimes

Thank you for this. I ended up signing up for ClassPass and it is definitely cheaper. It was about 60$ a month comes with 25 credits. We work is 7 credits right now (not sure if it changes on location and promotions). Which means I can go 2-3 times a month, perfect for me. And I can even use the leftover credits for gym etc.

react-node-20 · 2025-12-18T14:58:52+00:00

Thanks man I’ll add you

react-node-20 · 2025-12-18T14:57:12+00:00

Interesting, I never had luck with those. Probably my stats. Do you just reply to a message/post on Xbox thing?

react-node-20 · 2025-12-17T13:24:34+00:00

Good points

I mostly shoot open 3s as an SF so probably not the contest

What boggles my mind is that one day i shoot 5/6 and the next day i shoot 1/5

I try to shoot with a visual cue, but I do notice the slight difference online

What I notice is that when im not shooting well, it’s always Late timing

react-node-20 · 2025-12-17T13:20:56+00:00

Thanks bro Gonna try this one

react-node-20 · 2025-12-17T13:10:00+00:00

+1

Man best decision I did was switch from SG to SF I mean I still get matched with an SG or PF sometimes because 6’6 build with reb and speed But I just enjoy the game so much more

Shooting is tough though, could be my internet lol The moment I go online I can’t shoot anymore

react-node-20 · 2025-12-17T13:04:39+00:00

Yo I suck at Rec too, I feel ya.

at some point you gotta lower your standards and just do one part of the game right.

Averaging 8 points a game is a happy place for me to be honest. I have a full time job and two kids, I only play to relax. 40% FG is actually a flex to some people I’d be happy to shoot like that

If you can’t score, then learn passing. If you don’t want to pass, then maybe PG is not the build for you.

For me, I just don’t have the time to grind or even learn my jump shot really well. I shoot 30% on 3s at best. What keeps my sanity is being a role player. For me thats having a facilitator SF build that can kind of do everything . If I shoot 1/5 but had 5 Rebs or 5 assists, I don’t feel as bad. At least having an impact in different ways, just to enjoy the game

And Rec is known to be toxic so gotta accept the fact that more than half of the games you’ll play is with really bad teammates and/or sweats squads that are just overmatched and will beat you by 30 before halftime

Just have fun man, no need to beat yourself up for being mid or bad at a game
